    6 wings
    Mike G.

    I wish that they had a location in Philadelphia, I would be here all the time. Wings are my favorite and I consider myself a wing expert. These wings were really good , especially for a fast food chain! They were better than a lot of places near me that offer wings so I lived it. Very comparable to zaxbys and my wife liked the tenders even better the. Zaxbys. I think the wings were as good or better then zaxbys and I love zaxbys! Definitely go here for wings and tenders!

    Great chicken joint that everyone in the family will enjoy. Menu stretches beyond just normal chicken tenders and fries with their chicken & waffles, salads, etc. We got the chicken tender meals with fries, toast, and drink. Chicken is outstanding and I love the fried flavor. I also really liked their choice of flavored teas and drink selections. Inside and outside were clean and nice environment with all the TVs and seating. Nice modern looking building with great food. We'll be stopping by again next time we're in town.

    Chicken & Waffles

    It's always a pleasure eating at this location. The food and service is great. Thank You! Maybe one I will get a different meal, but the chicken and waffles are soooooooo good.

    Slim's Salad with fried tenders

    The Food was very good and the staff had great customer service. I let them know that I was traveling through Alabama and this was my first visit and they did not disappoint. The tenders were crispy and fries as well. The salad was so good, especially with the fresh fried onions. The parmesan garlic wings were tasty, the only complaint is that when ask if they good make the wings extra crispy it was a $7 surcharge. Desserts were really good. We got the Oreo Cheesecake in a jar and the Cookie dough brownie in a jar. The cookie dough brownie in a jar did have broken up heath toffee bars inside with was really good. The location was busy and very clean.

    Located in the heart of Tuscaloosa. Modern and a great hangout spot for family and friends. The service was exceptional and the food was absolutely amazing. This was my first time there and the cashier recommended the chicken finger basket and boy was it a delight. I definitely give this place a thumbs up for a great customer service friendly atmosphere and great food.

    foods great but some workers seem like they don't know what they are doing and are sort of rude, other then that great place. their location by tjmaxx is greattt. I'd recommend that location.

    Was in search of some good chicken strips on our road trip, so glad we passed Chick-fil-A and gave this place a try! Very clean and nice decor. The sauce options are delicious and the dessert was so much fun. I love the logo mason jar it came in.

    If you know downtown Tuscaloosa, you know getting into Urban Bar & Kitchen usually requires…read morepatience--and a willingness to stand around waiting for the doors to open. But spring break week flipped the script in the best way possible. Tonight, my wife and I met up with some good friends for a pre-retirement dinner, and with the college crowd scattered to the beaches, downtown felt like it belonged to us "seasoned locals" again. No lines, no crowds--just a quick call ahead and we were seated within minutes. That alone felt like a win. We started things off with the fried green tomatoes--a true Southern delicacy and, let's be honest, acid reflux's favorite dance partner. Worth it? Absolutely. These were hot, crispy, and full of flavor. The kind of dish that would make Grandma nod in approval. No shortcuts, just done right. For the entrée, I went with the UBK Pasta--blackened chicken, sausage, and shrimp tossed with corkscrew pasta probably crafted in a cast iron skillet. It came out hot and packed with flavor, carrying just the right amount of spice to keep things interesting without overwhelming the dish. Exactly how I like it. My wife stuck with a proven winner: the shrimp & grits. She's had it before, and once again, it delivered. Consistency matters, and this dish continues to hit the mark every time. Now, not everything was quite as smooth. Our waitress wasn't exactly channeling that warm Southern hospitality you hope for. Let's just say she wasn't "Miss Dolly" serving smiles with a side of charm. The service leaned a bit on the impatient side--subtle (and not-so-subtle) hints that our time at the table was up, including clearing drinks before we were even finished. At one point I joked about going to the restroom but worried I might come back to find my chair gone. Still, when the food is this good, it carries the experience. Urban Bar & Kitchen continues to deliver where it matters most--on the plate. The atmosphere was relaxed thanks to spring break timing, the food was as strong as ever, and the company made it even better. As for the service... maybe she was just ready for her own spring break reunion. Happens to the best of us. Final takeaway: Go for the food--it's consistently excellent. And if you can catch a quieter night like this one, even better.

If you've never had meat (or VEGGIES!) cooked on a BGE, it will change your life. This fact alone will bring me back to try other things. Before I get into the meal, my only real complaint was that they only had a soda machine and tea. I had brought my mother along, and she already had lunch and wanted just to sit and chat. As it was a very cold day she was gonna order a coffee and they don't offer anything hot! It's definitely an opportunity to expand here even if it was just so simple as putting a Keurig machine in the back. I had the Buffalo Chicken Wrap. It is served with grilled chicken in a grilled wrap and cheddar cheese. If there was a buffalo sauce, I didn't taste any. I was a little disappointed in the wrap. The flavor didn't really stand out as being cooked on the Big Green Egg. The cheese wasn't really melted, which can be a common problem with shredded cheddar cheese, but it also didn't really have the buffalo flavor that I was looking for in a buffalo chicken wrap (maybe it was a Toledo Ohio wrap I don't know just not spicy. ) It served with a side of ranch which I juiced up with some Cholula and that helped. I i'm not knocking the quality of the food because it was good. It just didn't live up to the expectations I had in my head based on the menu description. It also came with a side, which I chose the broccoli salad. This was nicely done with bacon, I believe some quinoa and the broccoli was chopped up nicely so you didn't have huge chunks. Also, it wasn't overly sauced so that would make it runny. Overall I give the property four out five stars. Also, the flavor of the whole meal was fine. Good size portion and good value for your money.

The wait for our party of 5 wasn't too long and we were seated in a big booth near the bar. Very nice decor, classy but comfortable. All of the servers and staff were super friendly and offered a nice selection of local brews and tasty margaritas. Several of us had the redfish special which was just outstanding! All in all, and outstanding experience. Definitely a repeater for us when next we're in town.

    Well after seeing reviews me and wife decided on this for lunch…read more I'll say all the staff were great. Very friendly. But the food?????? Wife wanted a salad and potato skins so went with the wedge which came chopped so more of a chopped salad than a wedge and it was fine. Nothing spectacular. Who potato skins were reminiscent of some frozen ones you heat in the oven. Didn't seem fresh at all. The bacon wasn't that great really and the cheeses was cheese. All in all edible but not enjoyable. I went with the bacon wrapped meatloaf with mashed potatoes with gravy and a side of Mac and cheese. I'll start with the Mac. It was horrible. Sorry don't mean to be a downer but wasn't good at all. The mashed and gravy a big nope. The potatoes weren't all that good. It was like eating a plat of spackle. And the gravy was horrendous. Made bad potato's worse. The meatloaf was ok. Kind of like cafeteria meatloaf. I did eat it but wasn't thrilled. Again not a fan of that bacon so ditched that after one bite. Personally I would not go back and wife agreed. Maybe we got the wrong items but nothing was good.
